GND /
LADJ
—
Level Adjust. This line adjusts the output power level
of the transmitter. Connecting to GND gives the
highest output, while placing a resistor to GND lowers
the output level.
2, 3, 7, 8, 9,

D0 to D1
I
Data Input Lines. When TE goes high, the module
encodes the state of these lines for transmission.
Upon receipt of a valid transmission, the receiver /
decoder replicates these lines on its output lines.
These lines are pulled to GND internally.

Transmit Enable Line. When this line goes high, the
module encodes the states of the address and data
lines into a packet and transmits the packet three
times.

Address Lines. The state of these lines must match
the state of the receiver’s address lines in order for a
transmission to be accepted. These lines are pulled
to V

D_CFG
I/O
Data Line Configuration. Determines whether a low
on a data line is interpreted as a zero bit or an open
bit. See the Input Type Selection section. This line is
pulled to GND internally.
26, 27
A_CFG0 /
A_CFG1
Address Configuration. These lines determine the
address bit type interpretation. See the Input Type
Selection section. A_CFG0 is pulled to GND and
A_CFG1 is pulled to V
CC
internally.
Module Description
The KH3 Series transmitter / encoder module combines a
high-performance Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) based transmitter with an
on-board remote control encoder. When combined with a Linx KH3 Series
receiver / decoder, a highly reliable RF link capable of transferring control or
command data over line-of-sight distances of up to 3,000 feet is formed.
The module accepts up to 8 parallel inputs, such as switches or contact
closures, and provides ten address lines for creating unique transmitter
/ receiver relationships. The KH3’s compact surface-mount package
integrates easily into existing designs and is friendly to hand production or
automated assembly.
